Stayed here for one night, all the other hotels were full so this was the last one and we got a room. Very pleasant place on the beach front, lovely rooms overlooking the ocean. The food was top notch, make sure you book the lobster BBQ on the beach, otherwise it gets full quickly. Didn't have time to try the... More

Hotel was very conveniently located, Port Louis was relatively close by, beaches were amazing and lots of activities around (and to see). Beaches and hotel exteriors were well kept, rooms spacious and tidy. Special mention to the staff, who were more than accommodating to every need, and made us feel like home. A perfect place to have paradise island type... More

To anyone thinking of travelling to this Hotel all I would say is that communication is the key. All they... More
